Okay, somehow I have to find time to read 51 books for the Florida Teens Read committee. I'm on this committee, otherwise known as the "Fun" committee, which it is! The committee members are high school media specialists from around Florida who read lots and lots of teen books (and some adult) for the Florida Teens Read list. I am very happy and proud to be on this committee, although I do admit I have been remiss in my reading lately!
The books that we are reading now have already made the first cut. At our FAME conference we met to go through the original list and narrowed down the titles under consideration. Now, each book must be read a majority of the committee in order to be considered for our final list, which will be determined later in the school year. Which leaves me with a lot of reading.
The books are of many different genres and styles, which I'm enjoying. I have read several titles that I probably would never have picked up, and they are all good, although still not my favorites. It is great to be exposed to so many quality books for teens, and I want them all for the media center. Now, I'd better get back to my books...
